Laughing Boy - Daryl Hall & John Oates, Lew Hahn, Arif Mardin

Laughing boy, guitar Johnny’s playing the blues so low

Laughing boy, don’t it make you want to cry

You know, I can’t imagine you were the magic boy so long ago

Your life and dreams are broken

You hate the world but you can’t live alone

Ain’t that fine?

I’m your friend that knows you and I’d like to tell you

That I think your laugh’s a lie

Laughing boy, that’s you layin' in the meadow

Laughing boy, memories ought to make you cry

Don’t let your mind surrender, 'cause I can’t imagine days without you

No one wants to be without you

You’ll find a way to help you play on You won’t pass the time alone

I’m your friend that knows you and I’d like to tell you

That I think your laugh’s a lie

Don’t let your mind surrender, 'cause I can’t imagine days without you

No one wants to be without you

You’ll find a way to help you play on You won’t pass the time alone

I’m your friend that knows you and I’d like to tell you

That I think your laugh’s a lie
